Environmental management as an instrument of planning, diagnosis, and application, which includes the organizational structure, responsibilities, processes and resources to develop, implement, achieve and keep up to date environmental policy, which is why solid waste management is all technical activity Operative that involves manipulation, conditioning, transportation, transfer, treatment, final disposal; For which the present research work was carried out that aimed to evaluate the solid waste management as part of the environmental management in the district of Casa Grande .; Through an initial evaluation (Pretest) of knowledge, which was obtained on average a 100% lack of knowledge in the four zones; To complete these results samples (Pretest of solid waste generated) of residues of each house were taken, since there was a high production of residues, causing a high level of contamination and environmental deterioration when an adequate management is not had; For this reason we proceeded to train a member of each house for four months, where didactic and audiovisual materials were explained with a simple language. All this proceeded to take an evaluation (Postest of Knowledge), which was obtained 100 % Of people present knowledge and apply the appropriate solid waste management in the four study areas, consequently in the collection of solid waste generated (Postest), presented a considerable reduction of solid waste applying the processes of minimization, recycling and reuse, In the comparison of the Pretest and Postest (Knowledge and generated solid waste), applying the "t" student test, it was demonstrated that there is a significant difference; With which allows to conclude that it was evaluated that the environmental management in the urban solid waste management presented deficiencies, which improved with the training influencing positively in the management of solid urban waste.
